![Starved Horse Makes ‘Remarkable’ Recovery as Jefferson County Judge Urges Charges
A severely malnourished horse seized in Jefferson County is making what veterinarians describe as a “remarkable turnaround,” while a judge says he strongly recommends criminal charges in connection with the case.
Malibu, now called Poppy by the people caring for her, weighed just 618 pounds when she arrived at Equine Medicine and Surgery. Veterinarians said she should weigh closer to 1,000 pounds. She has since gained nearly 90 pounds, but doctors say her nutrition must be restored gradually.
The horses owners waived their right to a custody hearing and appeal Thursday. Justice of the Peace Ben Collins Sr. awarded custody to Beaumont Animal Control, and officials say Poppy can eventually be placed for adoption or transferred to a rescue.
Collins said another horse, Butter-Cup, was found in even worse condition and died of starvation while in the owners possession. The judge described the case as one of the worst he has seen and told the owners he “strongly recommend[s] criminal charges be filed.”
